Built to withstand the toughest conditions, the Simrad NSE8 is a stunningly fast, full-function chartplotter right out of the box, supplied pre-loaded with HD Insight (USA only) cartography. But that's just the beginning, as the Simrad NSE12 offers owners the opportunity to add over time a wide range of modules and transducers that will extend its capabilities to include functioning as a best-in-class echo sounder/fishfinder, radar display (both HD and broadband), AIS transceiver, autopilot control, engine performance display, and much more. This is all accessible from a single screen (additional screens can be added as required) and displayed in the format and combination of your choice.
